Can I take AP science classes junior and senior year if I don’t take all honors classes?
Honors chemistry is very dependent on math skills. If your student is strong in math and science, and not as strong in reading, most likely they received a placement recommendation for college-prep biology. If students earn an “A” in Biology and earn an “A” or “B” in Advance Algebra, or an A or B+ in Intermediate Algebra, their teacher may very well recommend them for honors chemistry. Conversely, if your student was recommended for honors biology due to a strong reading score, but they are not in honors math or earn less than a B+ in IAF, they most likely will be recommended for college prep chemistry for their sophomore year. Students need very strong math skills to be successful in both the honors chemistry as well as the honors physics classes. Students that do not take all honors classes still can opt to take AP science classes their senior year. See the academic catalogue for prerequisites.
